This Advent season, Fr. Joe is inviting families to participate in lighting the Advent candles during our weekend Masses. A sign-up sheet will be available on the table in the front vestibule. Thank you, and may this season of waiting and hope be a blessing to you and your families.

We Hope to Bring Back the Precious Blood to Our Eucharistic Celebration! Father Joe is planning to reintroduce the distribution of the Precious Blood at Mass. This goal is to begin the First Week of Advent as we enter the new liturgical year. To move forward, we need volunteers to serve as Eucharistic Ministers—ideally two for each Mass. If you feel called to serve in this important ministry, please contact Adriana Haas (ahaas@stedwardky.org). Your
participation could help restore this sacred element of our Eucharistic worship. Thank you for your prayerful consideration! 

PLEASE NOTE: the are no remaining dates available for 2025 Mass intentions. 2026 MASS INTENTIONS book is open for scheduling. In order to give the opportunity for all parishioners to schedule a Mass intention for their loved ones and to accommodate recently deceased individuals, one weekend and one weekday per month for each deceased may be requested.
